Verdict

AND THE NEW stayed on strongly when challenged over this C&D last month in a novice event. That was on the back of a layoff, so there is every possibility that he's going to be better off for the run and, despite conceding weight, he could be up to a winning again. Jurby also impressed last month with victory at Wincanton, though may be forced to deal with better ground this time, while ex-Sir Mark Prescott runner Turning Gold has shown enough in two runner-up finishes over hurdles to warrant consideration. First Drift along with newcomers to jumping Starcrossed and Michael's Mount are others to make a note of.
